An arrangement for brass quintet of a chorus from Edward Elgar's cantata King Olaf.
King Olaf tells the story of the life, battles and eventual death of a Norse crusader, and is based on the epic poem by H W Longfellow. As Torrents in Summer appears in the epilogue of the work; an unaccompanied and soulful final chorus bringing the work to a moving climax.
This arrangement was written for the University of Warwick Brass Band, and was first performed at a Gala Concert held in 2005 to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the University. A easy, short number featuring the flugel horn, this piece is playable by most bands.
This transcription is for available for 2 trumpets, horn, trombone and tuba.
